Device collaboration method

Abstract

This application discloses a device collaboration method. A first electronic device establishes a collaboration connection to a second electronic device. The first electronic device obtains a first instance attribute of a first data object and a second instance attribute of a second data object. The first electronic device sends the first instance attribute to the second electronic device through a first session, and sends the second instance attribute to the second electronic device through a second session. In this way, two data objects that are the same on the first electronic device and the second electronic device are associated with a same session identifier. The first electronic device may monitor attribute changes of data objects of different types, and send only a data object whose attribute changes to the second electronic device.
